In answer to an inquiry made on behalf of the
Wilton Association (noted in the Bulletin, second
issue) a representative of Mr
.
E
.
J
.
Wall, Vice
-
President of the New Haven Railroad, stated that
the New Haven is considering taking off the buses
on runs where they do no pay
.
"Fhe interest of
Wilton is in the possibility of a shuttle service on
the railroad between South Norwalk and Danbury
.
Such a service seems now more than a possibility
.
Wilton is deeply concerned in this proposal
.
Some feel the bus service is not entirely satisfactory
because the runs are too infrequent and there are no
stations on the highway to protect passengers from
the weather
.
On the other hand, the buses make
more frequent stops and are more convenient for
many people, as they carry the passengers to points
closer to the shops in Norwalk and South Norwalk
than would a shuttle service on the railroad
.
As this is a question affecting a large number of
people, the subject should be discussed and some
action decided upon
.
It is for just this purpose that
the Wilton Association was started
.
to provide
frumo
where matters of general interes
be
t
di
a
,
cussed and opinions crystallized

If you desire that such a rneetMg be called
